you're fired.

it won't be mitch, they got jarrett allen and they're about to pay him. but i still hate you for suggesting it.


I was just remembering they got Allen.

It may not take much. If they go high in the lotto, they need to get rid of Sexton because they're getting Suggs/Cade. Garland can play off ball. If they draft one of them first then Sexton can force the issue.

I really think he's a breakout candidate with the right coach. And Thibs is the right coach.

“Various Cavs players still grow frustrated by the way Sexton dominates the ball, and opponents taunt them by saying during games, ‘you know he’s not going to pass you the ball,'” according to The Athletic.

Then they wouldn't want Quick either though

I don't really think we have anything they'd want. I guess, Obi, Knox, and picks? I don't want to give up RJ cause the goal should be to pair him with Sexton/Randle, but nobody outside of him really has any value.

Damn, almost 40 pages already.

The team had a very good season, exceeded expectations, and playing high effort basketball, far exceeding their talent level. Really, look at this roster and compare to Atlanta it is blatant that we would not be expected to win unless we continued to far exceed our skill level.

There is no change in the lineup or game plan that was changing this result. Our roster is what is lacking, and I am not even bothered by that as we know it takes time to evolve from where we were to become a desired destination. If we are unable to upgrade the roster over the course of the next few seasons, that is when I would be disappointed.

I'd imagine the prior 40 pages are littered with betas and trolls freaking out, demanding a tank or trashing the players or coach. Chill out. We lost to a better team while we are on the journey to becoming a better team.

yep. quick and garland is another pair of short guards which is their problem now. you could just give them 3 1sts or something but emptying the clip for sexton ? nah. pass.

The rumor mill has been saying Kawhi and Butler want to team up for a long time and that Kawhi might go to Miami if the Clippers get bounced again. Well, Butler looks pissed in Miami and he's been praising Thibs and the Knicks, he loves Thibs. IF he actually demanded a trade with the Knicks on his short list, I do believe we would have the assets to trade for Butler. And we would also have cap space to sign Kawhi if he wanted to team up with him. 99.999% chance that doesn't happen though

Damn is that really going to catch on? It's true though. I worked in a private medical office in Manhattan and did exams on a lot of athletes and personalities that we talk about. One day a "Marc Berman" was on my list and I was ready to let him have it. But I couldn't really tell if it was him, because there seem to exist no recent full body pictures of this ogre, or readily available personal information, like his birthdate.

Yes we’re too good for a 22 year old averaging 24 PPG 4.4 APG on 47/37/81 splits. Enjoy Elfrid Payton.

I'm not blaming him...but he wasn't good either. Bullock had zero chance to guard Trae but he refused to adjust. I think only 15 mins all 15 and 13 mins a game for IQ and Toppin in the series was criminal...considering you got nothing from Noel/Burks(outside of game 1) and Bullock. There were minutes to give them.

To not even try your best perimeter defender on Trae all series outside of one possession in game 1 is criminal as well.

Then to not go at Trae Young at any point in the series was very uncreative.

Thibs stubbornness came back to bite us...yes Randle and RJ playing better could have helped us more...but that alone wouldn't have one this series...we were seriously outclassed in every phase.


Yea, there were things that I wanted to see done differently too and they could have helped. Thibs is stubborn for better and worse. There are def some traits that Thibs has as coach that are maddening.


I mean the man started Elfrid Payton all year...but the playoffs are all about adjustments...I'm just not sure thats the type of coach he is.
His adjustments failed. It's not that he didn't adjust.
